Thoughts, anyone? How did you feel about the series overall? Favourite character?

The series exceeded my expectations about tenfold. Having found Summer of the Ubume a bit on the vanilla side, I wasn't expecting Mouryou to get as twisted as it did, and I was rather impressed with that. I also wasn't able to predict much of the story, which I was able to do easily with Ubume.
I even found myself enjoying the CLAMP designs by the end, which I was rather appalled by at first. The designs were actually relatively faithful to the character descriptions in Ubume (though Sekiguchi was far too pretty!) and I liked how they kept most of Kyogokudo's silly habits and Eno's random clothing changes.
It's sad that so few people ever took interest in such a wonderful series, and I hope that all of you who watched it can convince at least one other person to watch it, as it should definitely be shared!
